Every Crown Tells a Story

Section

Ours is set in Los Angeles. It begins with one brilliant, sparkling diamond and an idea:
set this stone in an elevated fashion that maximizes every last sparkle. And MICHAEL M made it a reality.

With our signature crown setting, we reinvented contemporary bridal jewelry. We present a hidden halo, a modern take on a classic technique that features our iconic negative space design and places the diamond at center stage, achieving a 360-degree aura-like brilliance.

From our Los Angeles atelier, we’ve made custom engagement rings that shine as bright as each M bride’s vision for her future self. And for the first time ever, we unveil our ready-to-wear collection. It’s rooted in generations of Meksian family jewelry-making tradition and it’s inspired by a new era of M Brides, M Girls, M Women, and M Men—fiercely independent, boldly confident, and seductively strong—whose love stories, style stories, and success stories shape our ever evolving creative vision.

This is our story.

The anatomy of the signature MICHAEL M Crown

The anatomy of the MICHAEL M Crown ring. Our signature setting presents a hidden halo, a modern take on a classic technique that features our iconic negative space design and places the diamond at center stage, achieving a 360-degree aura-like brilliance.

Our designs are brought to life by an elite league of skilled artisans handcrafting each piece and hand setting every diamond. MICHAEL M is renowned for beautifully detailed pieces that blend European-style sophistication with distinct modern craftsmanship.

Each ring is cast in whole, and the "U" shaped settings are scooped out of the solid gold individually by hand to embrace the edges of each diamond with its own 4 prongs. Requiring master craftsmanship and expert diamond setting skills, the U setting is not only the most difficult way to set a diamond, but it is also the most secure way to set a diamond.

The metal of the U setting is then high polished, creating a mirror finish adding even more brilliant sparkle! The U-set diamonds are viewable from every possible angle, allowing the corusating diamond to shine for maximum brilliance.

Inspiration for the MICHAEL M brand is pulled from many elements within the design world including, architecture, interior design, art, patterns, and of course, the brand's signature element, negative space.

The LINK Collection is inspired by the human desire for connection...one person connected to another, a mother to a child, a family to their neighbors, a community linked by all the individuals coming together to help one another.

The TETRA Collection is inspired by the four sides of a pyramid...four directions, four seasons, four pillars of life. The symmetry, structure and strength of the repeating shape of a pyramid, combined with the brand's signature negative space, makes up the foundation of this collection.

The CLOUD Collection is inspired by roundness, symmetry and repetition of shape. The collection combines ethereal design with symmetry and movement through the repetition of cloud motifs connected by smooth bars.

THE CROWN COLLECTION

Our Crown Collection, featuring the original “Hidden Halo”, is a modern take on the classic halo. Each style from our Crown Collection features tiny round diamonds handcrafted perfectly below the center stone, creating an unexpected sparkling crown that truly elevates each creation. Ideal for those who love halo rings but prefer a more discreet design, our expertise and craftsmanship can customize the hidden halo for any center stone. The subtly of this style has made this collection a crowning favorite.
